I feel the same way about smartphones but it's now completely normalised. Glasses are less paranoia-inducing since you can clearly see where it's pointed and it's at eye-level. I'd rather discourage smartphone use than smart-glasses use.
I worry you might not have a representative audience here, as most of Lemmy is privacy-savvy. I guess most people just don't care, and if it keeps this way, it will be no different than smartphones (which are primarily spy devices most people carry around all the time and no one notices anymore).
You can always cover your face in public. Islam is the light.
If I ever see someone with those glasses I will straight up punch them in the eye. I am not kidding. I would rather have someone walk around with a gun than those (and guns are illegal here)
I can absolutely see the appeal, it would save me SO much awkwardness, it's not even funny.
I am also very glad that (at least current) EU privacy legislation bans anything of the sort.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
